Can Trump Flip Minnesota? Republicans Make Bold Claims about Winning Minnesota, New Jersey, and Virginia

  • 3 months ago
Republicans met with Trump and claimed he could win Minnesota, New Jersey, and Virginia in the 2024 election, though this claim is not backed by broad polling. Democrats are pushing back aggressively against this claim, with Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota saying Trump makes many untrue statements and has never actually won the state. Other Democrats warn these states should not be taken for granted and a close race could impact other elections like Congressional races. Biden won New Jersey and Virginia by double digits in 2020, while Minnesota has voted Democratic in every election since 1972.
